Spyder, what's the M.O. for scheduled reports that usually move the market? Are they ignored and traded business-as-usual, are they just something to be aware of, or are they a sideline type of thing? TIA.

I have a quick question. Does it really matter what color the decreasing side of the gaussian is? And spyder, you asked for some feedback so you know where we stand. I like the change in ruleset. I found it immediately easier to stay at a coarse resolution and for some reason at this...

And this is a 60 min ES chart to show where the blue and dark gray trendlines are coming from on the 5min ES. ignore the volume- I have it clipped at 40k for the 5 min chart and ignore the labels like FTT- they get moved a little when I scrunch my chats up. Important thing on this chart are the...

Almost the same... skipped most of the midday annotations due to anemic volume. <img src="http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=1345710">

And sorry for the wide pics- I'm on widescreen monitors. I'll make them smaller when I post inline in the future so people don't have to scroll right for all the other posts on the page. I hate that.

And YM. Have a nice weekend everyone. <img src="http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=1340677">

So I jumped ahead a few days and added my YM chart today. What a huge difference that makes. Made ID'ing everything ten times easier. Here's ES...Red is carryove from yesterday. <img src="http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=1340672">

:) It's like deja vu all over again. A review from the start looks like a good idea for this weekend. Thanks for pointing me back. And thanks Mak- I get what your saying and I'm going to spend some time reviewing yesterday's chart so I can really wrap my head around it.

Mak, I didn't think we could steepen a channel. I thought we went from up to down and down to up, throwing in a few laterals where needed. I was under the impression that steepening was handled by volatility extensions. I occasionally had down > lateral that broke the down> down again, but...

Today's chart. Morning was a mess for me. I didn't have any grasp of what was going on until an hour into trading. Darker channels are my real time efforts trying to be mindful of P,V. I added two channels later that I labeled 1 and 2. These channels seem to be good containers of price...

EstebanUno and Mak both, excellent posts. Thank you. You guys have confirmed things I was seeing and feeling but wasn't quite sure how to verbalize. This has been an enlightening month so far and I feel alot of things are beginning to fall into place. In just a few short weeks I feel more in...

I'd say they look pretty good. You can see my chart a few posts before yours and the channels are very similiar. The one comment I would make is on your yellow channel you added an expansion past the right trend line. Only the LTL can have volatility expansions, like on the first channel of the...

Last two FTT's should be blue, not red. Forgot to change the color when I copied them into place and didn't notice till I was in mspaint. I also left a few FTT's in that were either identified too early or were just wrong. These would be the 3rd, 5th, and 6th of the 7 I have in there. One...

I'm seeing this too. Is this a valid transition?

I felt like today was difficult too. Not much follow through, lots of back and forth action. I was trying to follow Mak's approach and be more strict on my channels. Worked OK in the morning, but I found it tough going in the PM. Anyway, here's today...

Nice effort DKM. My goal for next week is to get a similiar real time log going. One Q on your chart, bar 57 which is the same one I asked Mak about you have labeled as a FBO. I think BO and FBO can only occur on the RTL. So is your bar mislabelled or am I wrong in my understanding of that?
